REGINA Two Métis men who were previously found guilty of fishing and hunting charges are fighting that decision at Saskatchewan’s Court of Appeal. The Saskatchewan Provincial Court found Warren Boyer guilty of unlawfully fishing after he was found fishing for food at Chitek Lake in 2014. The lake is about 60 kilometres southeast of Meadow Lake. The court also found Oliver Poitras guilty of hunting unlawfully about 37 kilometres south of Meadow Lake in 2012. The men have been tried together based on the similarities of the cases. They were charged by conservation officers. Both men argued that they have Métis harvesting rights in the areas where they were hunting and fishing. They also said they have harvesting rights as “Indians” as described in the Natural Resources Transfer Agreement.
Appeals Court to hear Metis hunting and fishing Rights cases
Lawyers for two Saskatchewan Métis men are set to argue that their clients have protected hunting and fishing Rights.
Warren Boyer was cited for fishing for food on Chitek Lake located about 60 km southeast of Meadow Lake and approximately 24-30 kilometers directly south of the most southerly end of Green Lake, which lake and hamlet lie adjacent to the historic Carlton – Green Lake Trail in March 2014.
At the time of his detention, Boyer invoked his Aboriginal right to fish for food under section 35 of the Constitution.
Oliver Poitras was cited for hunting for food at or near what is known as the “Sundance Fire Guard Road”, approximately 37 km south of Meadow Lake, in November 2012.
